Commentary on the Criticism of Teaching the Zakah of Livestock in the Present Day
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. He says: Why do we teach the zakah of livestock in the book of zakah?
Answer:
What do you mean? We teach the zakah of livestock, namely camels and sheep, in the book of zakah. He says this is old and criticizes it by calling it the "zakah of the ancestors." He asks why all zakah should not be in money, since we use this type of money more than anything else in this time. This is compounded ignorance. The rulings of Islam and the rulings of the Shari'ah are studied and known, and a need for them arises. But this is compounded ignorance, and no attention is paid to his words. Yes.
